  • @eXyProduction
    @eXyProduction 2 роки тому +102

    I have a Golf R as well and love it, Few tips
    1. Launch control requires Sports Mode + Traction control off (Make sure to hold it for 5 seconds or so, until you see the icon popup) Then foot on brake + foot on accelerator.
    2. If front wheels are spinning (and car is stock) Usually indicates the DSG needs a service as it shouldn't really be spinning stock.

    Just finished up the Smoking Tire Podcast, amazing timing.
    I'm glad you made this happen. I was commenting that you should do a DAZA swap in an R since you drove Collete's TTRS.
    Also, pretty funny coincidence is I was watching Kevin Hannon's videos a couple weeks ago cause he made a tutorial on how to install an OEM accessory subwoofer in my MK7 GTI. His R was also featured on the ShopDAP (popular VW parts shop) channel around the same time. Then just browsing his channel, I saw he was at the Lime Rock track day with you guys and also worked with Innovative Motorsports.
    These MQB cars have some crazy potential. I'm a JDM guy at heart but I love my GTI. Down the line, I'd love to have a DAZA swapped R, maybe with a manual.

    In order to get into proper launch control, you got to hold the esc button down until you hear a 2nd beep which means all full traction off. Gearbox needs to be in either S mode or S manual. Then you need to press the brake hard in order to activate launch control.
    Collete's car should be making around 460-480whp and around 620nm.

    I’m all for seeing a DAZA swapped Golf R, but I hope you’re prepared for the coding that comes along with it. That’s a major downside to doing swaps on MQB platform cars, is the electronic coding that goes along with it. These aren’t like the Mk4 days. There’s a fella on the forms that just finished his DAZA swap. I’ll see if I can find his info and post it in the reply or edit this comment. Just so you have a point of reference if you end up struggling with anything.

Was stock turbo Full E85 with methanol on Accessport (which now sucks because of cobbs new green speed update). No idea the power it was making but it ran 11.2 in the quarter.

    I can respect the Golf R's. This mostly Subaru channel I follow called Smeedia had either a 16 or 18 for about a month a little while ago, drove it maybe 1000 miles before the engine grenaded from some form of neglect from the dealership he bought it from. I forget the specifics but I think one of the spark plugs broke inside the engine & pinballed around in there. It was quick released after.
    Dude isn't exactly fyeahspec but he has attention to detail & does his own work to a pretty high standard. He currently has a 22 BRZ, an Evo 8 project, and the flagship is a 17 STI with a big turbo eg33 swap shooting for 1000hp that he pretty much did himself aside from fab work.

    i have a mk7 gti and the golf r has the is38 turbo and you can get 500 hp out of that easy with a e85 or a 93 tune

    there is a company in Connecticut that does that swap. you may need to reach out to them about the wiring harness. everything can swap out like gas tank, diff, brakes and everything under the hood.

    Sport mode traction control off foot on brake and gas and launch control should work at least that’s how it is with my mk6 you might have to let go of the gas if it doesn’t work at first but then just floor it again with foot on brake and it’ll work also if shifter has the S put it in that

    I’ve got the same Mk7 R (same color, wheels and dsg)… always wondered what wheels Tommy would do.

    It’s about time, this platform is amazing! With a BT, rods and WMI you can hit 500hp all day with that engine alone but the RS engine is insane. Just pricy for what you’re getting.

    I have a 15’ golf r IE stage 2 just under 400hp. You don’t need to swap for the 5 cylinder for 500 hp, garret makes a direct fit turbo and you can make over 500, less work and probably cheaper. By the way huge fan.

    The rs3 swap is common in the uk because your going from a 4 cylinder in the golf r to a 5 cylinder in the rs3 and they can make some serious power

    Innovative Motorsports has done the DAZA 5 cylinder swap into a Mk7 Golf R. Definitely worth checking them out. I've been wondering who's Mk7R that was in the background of video recently. Kinda fitting since your shop is an old VW dealership lol

      That is who is building it. It is almost done. Go check out their channel.

    2.0 tsi. Ea888, pretty nice. I'm building a 07k 2.5l 5.cyl. if you swap the 2.5l tfsi from a ttrs or rs 3 that'll be nice. The motors are pretty pricey.

    • @snoopdaclown
      @snoopdaclown 2 роки тому

      There's a shop that will do the swap if you provide the car. But it's alot and your gonna have to do alot to get it to work.
